Miss Kittin And The Hacker - "L'homme Dans L'ombre"

Miss Kittin And The Hacker - "L'homme Dans L'ombre": "...but speaking of electroclash and European girls, I can't help but bring up this chestnut. Subsequent records would show that Miss Kittin was bent on dance domination, but on this record, she is a relative unknown in a nurse's outfit, listlessly mentioning that she is afraid to sing in the night (!) - and then repeats her monologue again in French. This is the kind of weirdness that 'alternative' stations would play at 2am in the 80s, when all the normal kids had gone to sleep, but transported into the 21st Century - more by release date, than by sound."
